Watch: Mecole Hardman and Tyreek Hill race

Watch as former UGA football WR Mecole Hardman races his Chiefs teammate Tyreek Hill race at Kansas City training camp.

We finally have video of former Georgia Bulldog Mecole Hardman racing his teammate and fellow wide receiver Tyreek Hill.

The football world has often wondered who would win a race between Tyreek and Mecole, who are considered two of the NFL’s fastest players, since Mecole entered the league.

While at Kansas City training camp on Saturday, they squared off in a 40-yard race.

There was some debate over who won the race, though.

Hardman said that Hill won, however, Hill made a tweet claiming that Hardman had won.

 

Based on this video posted to Hill’s Twitter page, it looks like he beat the former Georgia Bulldog in the race.

Hill also posted the video to Instagram, and Hardman responded by saying that he nearly pulled his hamstring trying to keep up.

Expect a bigger role for Chiefs WR Mecole Hardman next season

The KC Chiefs are looking to expand the role of former Georgia football WR Mecole Hardman in the 2020 NFL season.

Justice Shelton-Mosely, an un-drafted rookie free agent receiver out of Vanderbilt, recently spoke to Vanderbilt Commodores senior editor Chad Bishop about what the Kansas City Chiefs said to him during the pre-draft interview process.

“They said they wanted to find someone to be in the return game and also someone that would be the guy to do the things (Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver) Mecole Hardman does.”

Former Georgia Bulldog Mecole Hardman had a huge rookie year for the Super Bowl champion Chiefs in 2019. He led all NFL players with 20.7 yards per reception (among players with at least 25 catches) and hauled in 26 catches for 538 yards and six touchdowns while adding 45 kick/punt returns for 871 yards and a touchdown.

It seems that the Chiefs have realized the threat Hardman can be on offense and are searching for someone to take some of his snaps on special teams to save his legs and allow him to focus more on the playbook.

In his final year at Georgia, Hardman was named to the 2018 ESPN.com All-America First Team (kick returner) and the 2018 AP & Coaches’ All-SEC 2nd Team. Maybe one of the fastest Bulldogs ever, Hardman running by defenders in Sanford Stadium was one of my favorite things to watch during his career in Athens.

This past week, CampusLore was able to sit down with Georgia football great Mecole Hardman, who is enjoying a phenomenal rookie season with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Hardman was asked how Georgia prepared him for the NFL, and the speedster credited the level of competition in the SEC, how Kirby Smart ran the program and playing in front of 93,000 people.

Hardman’s rookie season concludes with a trip to the Super Bowl in Miami where he will face one of the most ferocious defenses the NFL has seen in a long time. For Kansas City to come out on top, it could use some big plays from its speedsters on the outside – Hardman and Tyreek Hill.

While in Miami, the Chiefs kept a camera rolling on Hardman to capture the rookie’s true personality. The media team managed to cut it down to just over four minutes, but I’m sure there was a lot of great footage that was excluded in the final video.
